Reuters: "The 17-year-old daughter of Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin is pregnant, Palin said Monday in an announcement intended
to knock down rumors by liberal bloggers that Palin faked her own pregnancy to cover up for her child.

This is a riot! Seriously, this entire campaign is being ran like a three-ring circus. And the idiots here are eating it up!

Give me a break, someone claims she faked her pregnancy and while we were all saying no way, apparently something was true to it because she confirmed
that half of the rumor was correct AFTER the fact that it supposedly happened? I don't know what is at the bottom of this, but it stinks! And you had
better believe that all bets are off. I would be ALL OVER this yes sir, do as my puppetmasters ask, barbie doll.

Not even here, where we have pledged to deny ignorance are people seeing the wool being dragged over their eyes! Don't play into this! They are
slamming people with hype and trying to get people to vote on their prejudiced views rather than the fact that this country is headed down the shtter
at an ever increasing pace!

Give me a break, someone claims she faked her pregnancy and while we were all saying no way, apparently something was true to it because she confirmed
that half of the rumor was correct AFTER the fact that it supposedly happened?

So you think that perhaps Trig really is her daughters baby?

I honestly don't know what to make of this news and I'm a bit confused as to why they didn't say that her daughter was going to marry the babies
father when they initially announced that she was pregnant.

hehe. Heres the thing...this is why you dont throw rocks in glass houses and you see this constantly in the republican party. You have these people
claiming the moral highground and moral authority and everytime scandels like the gay sex, or hitting on men in bathrooms, hitting on young pages,
affairs, pre wed pregnancies. This is what I cant stand about the republicans of today. The fact is Sara Palin and her daughters are human. Im glad
to hear they like to have sex frankly I think Id bang Palin BUT the hypocrisy of the party is disgusting. They need to just kick the whole moral high
ground agenda. It wont happen because they want that evangelical vote.

Bristol and the young man she will marry are going to realize very quickly the difficulties of raising a child, which is why they will have the love
and support of our entire family. We ask the media to respect our daughter and Levi's privacy as has always been the tradition of children of
candidates."

It is being used to show Obama is misogynistic after how Hillary was treated. Palin wants the media and the Democrats to attack her on this issue so
she can turn to Hillary voters and say, "See how they're treating us women?"

Not much. The Dems may try to play it a little bit, but it looks pretty damn hypocritical when they claim to be the party of inclusion and the ones
who stand up for the rights of single, teenage mothers and such.

Not to mention the fact that she's hardly the first 17 year old kid who has ever gotten pregnant in this country. In fact, if the Dems do attack
on the issue, it may say something to all of those 18-29 year olds supporting Obama who have found themselves in the same situation in the past.

Honestly to me, it isn't even a question anymore. I entertained the thought for about a minute before dismissing it. But now it is obvious.

Yes, Trig is her granddaughter. I would wager on it. But that isn't even the point. The point is that this is pointless. I would be even more willing
to bet that this entire fiasco is a calculated move. It is designed to keep us scratching our heads and debating the insanity of it all while not
looking at the bigger picture here. The bigger picture is that we are about to put the biggest war mongering president we have ever seen into office
because we are being literally blindsided by this type of garbage!

This entire thing is completely and utterly OUTRAGEOUS!

If this thing weren't calculated, the entire GOP would be organizing a lynch-mob as we speak to forcibly remove her from the RNC!... Oh wait, we
still aren't even having one of those as of yet!
